Cast: Jeremie Renier, Deborah Francois
Language: French
Bruno and Sonia, a young couple living off her benefit and the thefts committed by his gang, have a new source of money: their newborn son.
The film won Palme d'Or award in Cannes making it Dardenne brothers' second one after Rosetta. No soundtrack is used in the film even for credits and the sound of cars in the road are expertly used. We oscillate from feeling angry and sorry towards Bruno. Unlike other Dardenne films it has some funny moments and a redemptive kind of ending which was quite unexpected.
Rating: 4/5
